उत्तर
Kilowatt hour
1 Kilowatt hour is the energy consumed when 1 kilowatt of power is used for 1 hour
1 kwh = `1000 "watt" xx 36000 "second"`
= `3.6 xx 10^6` watt second
= `3.6 xx 10^6` Joule (J)

What is the resistance of an appliance rated at V volt, P watt?
A room has AC run for 5 hours a day at a voltage of 220V. The wiring of the room consists of Cu of 1 mm radius and a length of 10 m. Power consumption per day is 10 commercial units. What fraction of it goes in the joule heating in wires? What would happen if the wiring is made of aluminium of the same dimensions?
`[ρ_(Cu) = 1.7 xx 10_(Ωm)^-8, ρ_(Al) = 2.7 xx 10^-8 Ωm]`
